America's Next Top Model host/executive producer Tyra Banks said would-be models, turned away after a weekend casting call in New York degenerated into bedlam, will get another shot.
Said Banks in a statement issued by the CW Network: "To all the Top Model hopefuls who were affected by the New York casting, we are doing everything we can to make sure that ALL the girls who weren't seen, get an opportunity to audition -- we'll update you on our plans very soon."
Three people were arrested and six injured after a large, hostile crowd spilled over a police barricade in Manhattan while waiting to audition for the show Saturday.
